Pros

Excellent benefits package (generous retirement and vacation policies, especially). Very nice facility to work in with most employees having their own office. Feel good about the work we do in that it enhances educational opportunities for students at the university.

Cons

No clear career path for advancing in the organization. Someone has to leave for you to get a promotion, though it seemed upper management found ways to promote the people they liked best (regardless of job performance). Location is somewhat incovenient to get to. Often feel like your ideas and opinions are not listened to by upper management. Everyone just seems interested in keeping their job.

Pros

I had a job and could read my books/draw during down time.

Cons

Horrible management. Incredibly aloof staff that does not take POC employees seriously. Also, multitude of microaggressions and straight up racism, Plain attempts of treating their staff without compassion and also putting their staff and students in harm's way during FSU's 2025 school shooting. Staff was told to keep working during an active shooting and even after people had been pronounced dead. This is not simply a testing center issue but a systematic concern of FSU's departments. Pay is also mediocre and only went up recently because of consistent complaints from the employees--not because they wanted to. Plenty of inappropriate behaviors were present while I was working there from upper management. Fawning, favoritism, power trips, blurring boundaries, etc. Parking is awful.
